My Cichla Ocellaris

[dwsdarius]

Take a look at my 14 inch cichla ocellaris! I've had this fish for over 2 years now and the personality is incredible! I believe its a female because a nuchal hump should have already developed if it was a male! I want to add another but she is very aggressive towards other cichla (I only tried adding one) but I would love to get another!

Nice fish Darius.
I'm not expert, but looks like ibrid ( ocellaris/mono ) compared with my ocellaris.
However very nice colour!
If you want to add some others cichla put 2/3 fishes to avoid fighting.

There are three types of ocells from
Suriname, French Guyana and from Guiana.

Yours is a French Guyana Ocell while ops bass could be a Guiana ocell. But, yeah, most likely ops is a hybrid.
